"That boy Cole talkin’ that real... Listened two times back to back on my flight to LA. Delivered a message, talked your shit, gave your perspective, vented thru your music, addressed some things, experimented & stayed in your lane all at the same time on this project. Salute @realcoleworld #KOD," he wrote in the caption.
